Brevicoryne is a genus of aphid insect that contains many species which are agricultural pests.
Hosts
This genus parasitizes a wide range of hosts, with many members of the Brassicaceae (broccoli, cabbage, kale, etc.) included.
Adults
Adults are distinguished from the nymphs by their darker body. They may (alate) or may not exhibit wings.
Parasites
Many species of wasps parasitize the juvenile (nymph); injecting their eggs using their ovipositor creating 'mummies' (so called because of their desiccated appearance).
